To take the respirator one step further, one of the best investments I've made is a full face one. Not only does it protect the lungs, but its also superior eye protection. With regular safety glasses I found dust and such so often got in my eyes around the edges of the glasses. With the full face respirator it blocks out 100% of particles from my eyes. Additionally, when I've been painting and get little specks on glasses, it blocks my vision and the only fix is to take them off and clean them. With the full face respirator I'm able to wipe stuff off without having to take it off because there's zero chance of stuff getting in my eyes.

@@Fixthisbuildthat I bought the Miller PAPR unit, but I also weld. The helmet is a bit heavier than the 3M PAPR unit because of the welding glass visor that slides up and down. The biggest benefit is the nice cool air and no fogging up because of the air movement. PAPR units are not cheap, but they make wearing PPE with no downsides possible. Breathing is much easier than a mask and no dust getting in at all. Works really well for carving.

@Ritalie 7 ай бұрын

I absolutely agree. The full face respirators are amazing! As a crappy cheaper option, I've found that when I'm doing wood working, I always wear safety glasses, as well as a full face shield. The face shield removes 90% of the dust from ever getting to your safety glasses, so you can't get sawdust in your eyes. Then, you also wear a neck gator made from thin cloth, and you wear the gator under a plain N95 dust mask, it and it really blocks 99% of the sawdust. But if you just wear a plain N95 mask without he fabric gator underneath it, air leaks around the mask unless it has a large foam gasket.

Love the video as always. Having a dedicated miter saw station would be awesome but I wish people would also talk about the benefits of mobility too, especially for those of us working out of a garage. My "shop" is a two car garage that two cars actually get parked inside. So I made a cart for my miter saw and table saw that roll up to the front, underneath a floor to ceiling shelving unit I built that holds my bigger-than-handheld tools, a set of winter tires, jigs, and dust extraction system. I also made a folding work table that's held vertically against the shelving, and since it's the same height as the saw carts it can be infeed or outfeed for both. Sure I have setup time to get things in place to work, but I have to think of the trad-off to park two cars indoors five days a week vs woodworking two days a week.

I was gifted that Milwaukee palm router. Virtually dust free, although the dust cover can be finicky to snap on. Love at first cut. And…I can use the 1.5 batt while my husband uses the 12. Equally well balanced! I “weighed” getting the cordless nailer and bought the air one. The cost and overall heft of the cordless was a no brainer choice. My Cal air tools compressor and Metabo nailer were still significantly less. And so much easier to handle in a pickup/laydown/repeat scenario. My daughter loves her cordless, but she is mostly in the yard, and the hose can be a pain there. Thanks for the great wish list! Even if they were already mentioned on a channel I do not watch 😁

I have been countersinking screws for as long as I have been making sawdust. Game changer when using hand-held drills, but it works so dang well I even chuck it up in my drill press. I paid $45 for mine about eighteen months ago. In that amount of time I would have gone thru two...maybe three...normal countersink bits at around $10 each. So, the Amana pays for itself in about that much time...plus it reduces OCD stress because of perfect depth holes, every time. Well, well worth the investment.

Just to add a little bit about the dB scale also.. What you may not have taken into account is the tone of the noise.. 40dB high pitch is vastly different to 40dB low pitch.. If the oil is also lowering the pitch, it can actually be helping to save your ears even more than just the simple 10dB lower in volume..

I have a Wagner similar to that one. I have the control sprayer Max. It's mostly for stain but you can also thin your paint well enough to spray as well. And it even comes with the details sprayer for a little bit extra I even was able to spray Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane which if most people are not aware of is by far the best water-based cabinet or trim or furniture paint on the market in my honest opinion that stuff holds up incredibly well it is all the benefits of oil and urethane but with the cleanup and low VOCs as latex. It's pricey but it is more than worth it. Also Wagner makes and sal es two portable paint booths. The small one is about 3 ft tall and you can put a filter and a fan in it and even have it inside I've sprayed in my office before and sprayed oil-based paint and it worked beautifully. The bigger one is about 5 ft tall and has a mesh screen on it that you can zip up. The little ones about $30 from my area and the bigger one is about 50 to 60 bucks. I use my little one for airbrushing mostly and my big one for bigger furniture projects. They are very very easy to put up and more than worth the money.

A quality respirator is so amazing. I wear mine all the time when doing any home improvement work. And when I was putting a stain on several pieces of wood in a closed space, it was so good that I didn't smell any fumes -- when I finally took the respirator off after 90 minutes of applying stain, it was a shock because I had no idea the fumes were that bad without the respirator! $50 very well spent and ~$20 for high-end replacement cartridges -- far cheaper than the future hospital bills (and degraded life experience) for chronic respiratory problems.

The RZ is so much more comfortable, I reach for it unless I'm painting or otherwise working with solvents. So I say get both! I would add one thing to the list: sound-canceling hearing protection. I wear hearing aids now because I ignored hearing protection for decades. 3M makes a Bluetooth streaming noise canceling headset, called Worktunes, that is very effective. They make a version with a radio tuner, as well. I highly recommend them. Thanks.

While an organic vapor cartridge may work for most paint, you should check the manufacturers' SDS (FKA MSDS) to determine the suggested PPE. Section 8 of the SDS will list the PPE or tell you who to contact. There are some exotic things out there that you may need an acid gas, combo, or other cartridge. I have some boat stripper that it suggests to use an airline system in enclosed conditions.

Decibels are complicated. You're absolutely right that it is not a linear scale. For reasons that completely pass me by, every 3dB DOUBLES the previous volume recorded. (Note, the word "volume" is not strictly the right word to use here, but everyone understands what is meant, right?) 90dB is really loud, but 93dB is TWICE as loud. 87dB is half as loud. It's not at all intuitive. So the point you're making with your test is no small matter. If something is 9dB quieter, then start with the original sound, halve it, then halve it again, then half that once more. That EIGHT TIMES quieter the original volume level. Thanks for this video. I learned a great deal from it.

However, there are some real serious pros for having an air compressor. For one thing, on larger projects, you don't have to worry about the batteries running out. Also, if you get a larger compressor, you don't have to deal with it constantly starting like you do with the little pancake compressors. Some of the larger ones are even on wheels which helps address the portability issue that sometimes might otherwise be a bar to getting one. Another thing I like about having pneumatic tools is that, once you make that initial investment in the compressor, you can use any pneumatic tool with it, and pneumatic tools, even very high quality ones, are generally much less expensive than their electric powered counterparts. Certainly much less expensive than their battery-powered counterparts. The other thing I will say, specifically with regard to battery powered tools is that, again while I really like my battery powered tools, you really want to make your decision very carefully when getting into a collection of battery powered tools. Unfortunately, the batteries and chargers are not interchangeable across brands, and in some cases are not even interchangeable across categories within some brands. So, if you decide to go with DeWalt, you'd better be happy with it, because you don't want to end up with a garage with full of different batteries and different chargers. With the battery powered tools, you can actually get them relatively inexpensively now if you don't have to have a battery for each tool. You might have 10 battery powered tools, but only four batteries because you're not going to use more than that in a day, and you don't need to use all 10 tools at the same time. That makes a pretty good counter argument to having a compressor and pneumatic tools, but again it does necessitate that you stay within one brand ecosystem. Just my two cents.

Run the compressor hose across the roof and dangle it down, and you don't have to trail it across your work either.

I can find the hose to be in the way no matter what I do. Just like extension cords. The adhd dilemma is real with this one

I enjoy the video, but have a couple of comments. 1-Hearing protection is good almost all the time. What gets missed quite often, droning and loud sounds cause fatigue. Even the disposable ear plugs are a help. 2-Perhaps the best tool is joining a Makerspace or lab. The reason is not immediately seen, but after two plus years as a member I realize how many of the tools I was using. I have access to tools I would not buy for myself based on usage. Sawstop Cabinet Saw, Jointer, Planer, Routers, Router Table, Drill Press, Lathe, Bead Blaster, Miter Stations, Dust Control, Band Saws… 5’ x 10’ CNC Router. All that plus people to help and share experience. I also get to still park in my garage. 3-I understand the desire for cordless tools. They are often much easier to work with, no cord. However the amount of torque and speed difference between cordless and corded can not be overlooked. My solution for cord management when working in my garage, an overhead cord reel. It does a good job of keeping the cord out of my way.

Love the video! What you you recommend for a compound miter saw setup? I like how you have the miter saw set up...but it might not accommodate all of us? I guess it would depend on the width of the platform but I wanted to know if you had any other tips, on this?! Thank you!!

Taylor Tools also sells a much less expensive drill press add-on alternative to the Worksharp 3000. Thanks for sharing all the other items I'll be adding to my Black Friday wishlist!

The longer I watched your video, the more intriguing it became. I have all these pieces except for the cordless nailers. I work mostly in the shop with a larger, quieter compressor and an overhead hose management system. You showcased all great tools, but the Amana countersinks, tracksaw, Milwaukee hydraulic driver and the drum sander are the best for me. If I were to add anything it would be to have more than 1 vise, dog holes (or T-tracks) with clamps & dogs and maybe even a Moxon vise. So, mathematically, I completely agree with 90%. That's pretty dang good. Good video. Thanks.
